The ruling on placing a candle under the face during prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Sometimes, Honorable Shaykh, we go out to the open land and pray the Friday prayer in congregation on the ground, and I am afraid that it is not pure, so I place my scarf under my face. Is this permissible?
Answer:
This is an unnecessary burden. The default is purity, and praise be to Allah, unless you know that there is impurity on the mat. If you do not know, the default is purity, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
